Download or read book Repetition in Arabic Discourse written by Barbara Johnstone and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1991-08-16 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this examination of expository prose in contemporary Arabic, structural and semantic repetition is found to be responsible both for linguistic cohesion and for rhetorical force. Johnstone identifies and discusses repetitive features on every level of analysis. Writers in Arabic use lexical couplets consisting of conjoined synonyms, which create new semantic paradigms as they evoke old ones. Morphological roots and patterns are repeated at close range, and this creates phonological rhyme as well. Regular patterns of paraphrase punctuate texts, and patterns of parallelism mark the internal structure of their segments. Johnstone offers an explanation for how repetition of all these kinds can serve persuasive ends by creating rhetorical presence, and discusses how the Arabic language and the Arab-Islamic cultural tradition especially lend themselves to this rhetorical strategy. She suggests, however, that discourse repetition serves a crucial function in the ecology of any language, as the mechanism by which speakers evoke and create underlying paradigmatic structure in their syntagmatic talk and writing.

Book excerpt: In recent years, many humanists and social scientists have rejected the notion that understanding is a simple matter of encoding and decoding. Current theory in linguistic pragmatics, in rhetoric, in cultural anthropology, and in literary theory, stresses the situated, interactive, rhetorical nature of understanding. Various approaches to the ways understanding is constructed in the process of interaction--such as interactional sociolinguistics, epistemic rhetoric, ethnography of communication, functionalist poetics, and reader response theory--make reference to the crucial role of repetition in this process. Linguists have examined repetition in conversation and in language acquisition. Anthropologists and folklorists have studied the role of parallelism as a feature of performance and as a recurring characteristic of ritual forms of talk. Students of poetics discuss repetition as a key feature of artistic language. Literary theorists and rhetoricians discuss "intertextuality," or the ways in which the authors of new texts make use of old texts. Clearly, anyone interested in a comprehensive theory of understanding must pay close attention to the mechanisms and functions of repetition. -- Preface.

Download or read book Second Language Rhetorics in Process written by Alexandra Rowe Henry and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1993 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores second language composing processes and rhetorics through the data-rich perspective of ethnography, a unique approach to the study of second language rhetorics and one that leads to increased understanding of cross-cultural written communication. Moreover, most second language composing studies are not longitudinal in scope. Although this study draws the bulk of its data from five colleague-researchers before they begin their studies in the United States, the study concludes with additional data collected after the participants complete their degrees. The results provide intriguing insights into second language pedagogy as well as manifold dimensions of cross-cultural communication.
Download or read book Assessing Second Language Writing in Academic Contexts written by Liz Hamp-Lyons and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1991 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first volume to focus on the assessment of second language writing. The collection as a whole provides coverage of all issues in second language writing assessment, starting from the context in which and for which assessment must occur, moving through the aspects of decision-making and design in a writing assessment program, and then considering how the need to evaluate any program on assessment can be carried out. After a discussion of issues of public reporting, an area which will receive increasing attention in the next few years, the volume closes with a discussion of what new issues and answers the future may bring. The book reflects the current belief in direct writing assessment in second language writing assessment. While it is often expected that those working with ESL students will focus on language error, throughout the book themes of needs, attitudes, ideas and content dominate. For second language writers the use of written language to learn, to create knowledge and to share ideas and beliefs are vitally important. Additionally, issues of cross-cultural academic literacy, practical information on criteria and scoring models for use with ESL writers, and research on the efficacy and effects of various assessment models are provided. The book blends theory and practice in a way which offers all those who are concerned with the writing skills of nonnative users of English an invaluable resource.
